it was president obama at his best. i thought the most important moment was when he talked about we're not a divided country. there are lots of things that unite us. we're not just about red states and blue states. but my own personal view is what he should do is he needs to go out and talk to the american people about those things, and what it is that he thinks that unites us as a country. what he thinks can bring us together. this notion that it all happens in washington, that there is compromise and stand on principle. the lesson for this president in the first four years ought to be he didn't spend enough time out with the people leading the country and explaining what his vision for the country was. i think that the government--if he can sell his vision to the people, the government will follow. >> eliot: richard, let me restate what you said which is exactly right. he wants to persuade us that we're not divided. he's wrong. we're divided about fundamental principles. that's okay. that's what democracy is all about
